Matt Cahill is an Australian singer/songwriter & composer. As a graduate of the Ryzard Pusz School of Percussion he has been actively involved with bands since the early eighties, although most notably in his 13 year tenure as 'Vocalist/Guitarist' with the multi award winning Australian band 'The Violets'. Disillusioned with the traditional 'band' format, he eventually formed EVOLETAH, not so much as a band but as a 'musical project' to record songs written for The Violets that had never been recorded. Having 'Cherry Picked' members, this resulted in the projects initial offering 'Fool's Errand'.
Since then, he has handpicked collaborators to make albums with in not a dissimilar way to that of Jason Swinscoe, producer of 'The Cinematic Orchestra'.
Among other projects, avant-electro duo 'The Quiet Room' & pop outfit 'Late Night Trade'
Matt is also the creative director of the 'Paper Rock Scissors' record label.
Having been recording & playing live with 'EVOLETAH' since 2005, the collaborative project recently enjoyed global recognition with the critically acclaimed fourth album, 'We ache for the Moon' & was then followed up in 2021 with fifth studio album, 'Run with the Hunted'.
Currently, Matt has resumed his position as the former lead vocalist of The Violets, as all original members reunited for the first time in 20 years.
After having spent extremely productive months in both 'Wizardtone' & The Audiogarage' studios,
The Violets are now embarking on the promotion of their brand new album,
'Smoke, Mirrors & other half-truths' released in March 2022.
